CircuitSolver Union Cold Water Valve

In unbalanced and non-recirculated cold-water systems, low fixture usage can result in stagnant water that creeps above 67 F, significantly increasing the risk of Legionella bacteria colonization. The CircuitSolver Union Cold Water Valve is a thermostatic, self-actuating balancing valve that automatically adjusts flow through a cold-water recirculation system to maintain a specific temperature at the end of each supply branch. This keeps water moving, keeps water cold, and discourages Legionella growth even in periods of low use. www.circuitsolver.com

Viega Radiant Auto-Balancing System

Viega's new Radiant Auto-Balancing System (RABS) delivers an unprecedented level of control and consistency in radiant heating systems. RABS gives users for the first time the ability to independently control each zone in a radiant heating system. Balancing valves are not required and installers can commission as many as eight thermo- stats and 12 circuits per control unit. RABS achieves the desired temperature in each zone by analyzing the supply water temperature, each circuit's return temperature and zone air temperatures where a wireless thermostat is used. The system offers four operation methods that comple- ment each other. www.viega.us
